CERN Open Hardware Licence
A legal framework to facilitate knowledge exchange across the electronic design community. In the spirit of knowledge and technology dissemination, the CERN OHL was created to govern the use, copying, modification and distribution of hardware design documentation, and the manufacture and distribution of products.
Knowledge Transfer | Accelerating Innovation Italy@CERN, 08.10.2014
CERN OHL: it is making an impact! • CERN OHL v1.1 Launched in 2011, great interest from the
worldwide community • More than 50 hardware designs licensed under CERN OHL • More than 20 companies are using it • The license is being used by people outside our community
as well (and for any kind of hardware) • Thanks to the interactions with the community, we improved
the license and prepared v1.2

Knowledge Transfer through Procurement
Results from a survey of companies involved in technology-intensive procurement contracts with CERN. 178 questionnaires analyzed, related to 503 MCHF procurement budget. Results: n 44% indicated technological learning n 42% increased their international exposure n 38% developed new products n 36% indicated market learning n 13% started new R&D teams n 52% would have had poorer sales performance without CERN n 41% would have had poorer technological performance
